2012-10-09 - Day 10 - Railay

Another big breakfast ready for our travels! Found Dan, and gave him and his boy a puzzle ball, took a picture and almost tripped on the broken bridge. We then took a boat back to the port through the mangroves, and gave our driver a slap band.

Rang Tut and he was visiting his brother who fishes on Koh Muk. We stopped at the fruit market on the way back - no mangosteen, but got some not so nice pre-packed fruit, which went straight in the bin, which was a bit sad. Lovely drive back to Kraby and Aonang.

We transferred to a boat to Railay Beach with some spanish girls and a couple of buys who left their mountain boots in the boat - oops.

We arrived, and it was a really hard walk to our Railay Garden Resort, perhaps the last resort on the beach, and past some monkeys which we did not like. It was worth it though, we were on the mountain side surrounded by mango trees and papaya trees, and was very peaceful and basic.

We had showers, and walked around East Railay shops after we stopped for iced coffees and ice cream and a game of Pit. We went back to our two rooms and chillaxed. We then went out to visit Diamond Cave, and had another monkey encounter, and watched a long trail of red ants on the telegraph wire. The cave was amazing - see pictures! Loads of bats! Saw lots of people climbing the cliffs too!

Out for dinner at a really nice restaurant - with some lovely thai food, and we stopped for sticky rice and mango after - amazing!

Headed back, and Aiysha stayed with Daddy, and Clara stayed with Mummy. We had to watched the step from our room to the bathroom - it was huge! A hot night, in another very different place.
